Try a Men’s Fragrance
If you break the rules as well as the glass ceiling, why not try a dynamic men’s scent for a change? They often err on the side of fresh or musky so won’t leave you feeling like you just walked out of a candy shop and deliver an unexpected, sexy appeal that is akin to wearing a man’s shirt in the morning. Feminine, but with a twist.
Try a Hair Mist
Fragrance is your signature and you like to leave a trail of admirers in your wake. Sounds like you? Then why don’t you give hair mists a go? Scents that will cloak your tresses and dresses in an airy dose of jasmine and gardenia are sure to leave a delicate, intoxicating trail as you breeze through the streets.
Try a Scented Body Oil
You’re not afraid to entertain alternative ways of thinking, be it in fashion, food or fragrance. Eschew the classic perfume bottle and opt for body oils instead. Often more concentrated, long-lasting and housed in beautiful packaging, build an indulgent after-shower routine around body oils and you might just end up making the switch to oils permanently.
Try a Kabuki Brush
Glamour is the goal in all that you do. You’re always spotted at the right place at the right time and are always immaculately dressed. The next thing for you in fragrance is Byredo’s innovative and undeniably elegant Kabuki brush. Sweeping this powdered perfume along your neck will become a welcome addition to your refined, ladylike routine.
